Spectrum: Spectrum TV

Short answer: there isn’t one “best” streaming service anymore—it depends heavily on what you watch, how often, and your budget. Here’s a clear, no-BS way to choose.

🎯 If you want ONE service only

• Netflix → best all-around

  • Huge variety (movies, shows, reality, documentaries, global content)

  • Constant new releases

  • Downside: getting pricey
    👉 Best if you just want something good to watch anytime hybrid traffic+1

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 If you want the best value (multiple types of content)

• Disney+ bundle (with Hulu + ESPN+) → best bang for your money

  • Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar + regular TV + sports

  • One subscription covers almost everything
    👉 Often considered the best overall value bundle GoodPickr

📺 If you watch current TV shows

• Hulu

  • Next-day episodes from cable networks

  • Good mix of originals and live TV options
    👉 Best if you still like “TV-style” watching FETV

🎬 If you want high-quality, “prestige” content

• Max

  • Big-name shows, HBO-style dramas, movies
    👉 Best for critically acclaimed stuff PickFlix

💸 If you want something cheaper / already included

• Amazon Prime Video

  • Comes with Amazon Prime

  • Solid library + decent originals
    👉 Best “free with something you already pay for” option PickFlix

🧠 Reality check (important in 2026)

• People now spend ~$69/month on average across multiple services FETV

• Prices are rising, and many users rotate subscriptions (cancel + resubscribe when shows drop) New York Post

🧭 My honest recommendation

• If you’re unsure: start with Netflix

• If you want value: get the Disney+ bundle

• If you’re trying to save money:
  👉 Pick 1–2 services at a time and rotate

If you tell me:

• what shows/movies you like

• whether you care about sports, anime, or kids content

• your budget

…I can narrow it down to the exact best setup for you.
